IMM 110 Notes 09-19-2018

Learning is the same regardless of how the information is presented to you

most of what we learn is stored in terms of meaning

the best way to learn or teach something is to look at the content itself

many things can be taught using multiple senses

Just because something is commonly believed does not mean that it's true

When something is so pervasive it doesn't make people want to challenge it

Just because we want something to be true doesn't make it so

People don't like to be wrong, they wannt to be right and they want to give reasons to prove their veracity. This is subconscious, we don't even realize that we're doing it

Labels can be misleading and dangerous

That might actually perpetuate your failiure

All of us are capable of learning in a variety of ways

How often do we surround ourselves with like minded people so that we won't have to deal with disagreements

The best way to learn something is by teaching it

Learning style refers to traits that characterize how a learner prefers to learn. Generally, we speak of tacticle learners, visual learners, and auditory learners

Most people develop a pattern of behavior when learning something new. That is, we tend to approacha task in a similar fashion each time. The pattern of behavior we develop over time is called a learning styles

Multimedia designers employ a variety of applications and tools to accomplish many specialized tasks

Although learners are described in one of three ways (tacticle, visual or auditory), a learner's learning style can often be narrowed down to one of four different types:

An understanding of how people perceive information and ultimately learn is an individual tool for a multimedia designer. Discussions of learning styles are mostly contained in the educational arena, but as multimedia becomes more entrenched into differed phases of society, information concerning learning styles becomes much more important to non-teaching professionals as well. When properly implemented, multimedia can be used to address the needs of a variety of different learning styles.

Multimedia allows end users to actively engage in their learning. Through the use of text,n sound, graphics, video and animation, learners have the ability to achieve a greater understanding of a subject matter than they would previously experience from traditional learning methods

Multimedia Hardware and Software

A computer system that can create, import, integrate, store, retrieve, edit and delete two or more types of media materials in digital forms, such as audio...

Storage is a huge thing

Video takes up a lot of storage

Most machines come with a sound card

A lot of people like to work with a pen while using photoshop for accuracy or precision

Multimedia designers employ a variety of applications and tools to accomplish many specialized tasks

A computer system that can create, import, integrate, store, retrieve, edit, and delete two or more types of media materials in digital form such as audio, image, full-motion, video, and text information
